It remains a fact that very few over-.30 cartridges gain any popularity with recoil-shy Americans, out of the larger handful that are worthy. Remington has failed several times with the .350 mag and .35 Whelen, two cartridges with similar performance to their .338 counterparts.


Fills a significant spot?

Like significant enough that you can't find an RCM in most gun stores?

Yeah that spot was real significant alright.....


You won't find a 35 Whelen either but a lot of guys love them.


I've seen a lot more Whelens than RCMs
